Post by 18jonesy »

The only problem is getting the dash out because i don't know how and I will need to cut a hole in the roof for a sun roof. :meh:

Any hints/tips anyone?

the wheels are ripspeed ones from about 5 years ago.

looks like it does need some work, but the damaged parts are easily acquired! the dash will come out no worries once everything else is out.

Right I've just picked up the donor car :D

I got the hole car for £300, which I thought was a steal. I just managed to squeeze it next to mine.

I will be selling all the parts I don't want, let us know what you need!

Can I remove the sunroof guides on mine? I was thinking of just blanking it off, because the new interiors roof has not got a sunroof hole.

Just wondering as well has anyone changed the windows? because I want the all tinted ones from the donor car.

How easy/hard will it be?

Sorry if it was mint i would keep it, both lugs that fit to the arches are damaged and a little bit round the tow hook.

Its free to whoever wants it anyway.

The doors are a pearl sort of green, but the drivers side has been bent at some point, sorry Rob.
